ChapterDungeons & Dragons

The Whispered One. Lord of the Rotted Tower. The Master of Secrets. Few dare speak his true name, for fear that he may hear—or worse. A master of magic and calculated conqueror, the archlich Vecna is relentless in his pursuit for dominance.

Power

The Book of Vile Darkness

The Lich can cycle through and cast four unique Spells:
 Mage Hand: Conjure a magical hand to lift a downed Pallet or briefly block an upright Pallet.
 Flight of the Damned: Send a row of 5 flying spectral entities that can pass through obstacles and injure Survivors. Dispelling Sphere: Cast an invisible moving sphere that reveals Survivors and temporarily disables their Magic Items.
 Fly: Briefly fly forward to quickly traverse a long distance, bypassing Pallets and Vaults.
 Special Item - Magic Items: Vecna spawns several Treasure Chests across the Map, containing Magic Items – Boots and Gauntlets – that Survivors can use. Each Magic Item is connected to a specific Spell, activating whenever The Lich casts it. Survivors can equip one pair of Boots and one pair of Gauntlets at a time.
 Special Items - Hand and Eye of Vecna: There is a slight chance Survivors can find the Hand or Eye of Vecna in a Treasure Chest. When picked up, fully healed Survivors can use a Special Ability at the cost of 1 Health State.
 Hand of Vecna: When doing a Fast Locker Entry, the Survivor is teleported to a further locker. Eye of Vecna: When doing a Fast Locker Exit, the Survivor cannot be seen by The Lich and gains Haste for the duration of the effect.

The Lich - Vecna's lore

Ambitious, ruthless, and calculated, Vecna’s thirst to fill his Book of Vile Darkness led him to many realms and planes, until he found a spell written in an unknown language. Upon speaking the words aloud, the room filled with creeping black fog. As he gazed into the darkness, he felt only despair, an evil he could scarcely imagine. He understood that the only way to harness it was to submit to it. He knew, in his cold, unbeating heart, that its dark secrets would one day be his.
